If you're looking for a powerful TMS to streamline your operations, reduce costs, and improve customer service, we've got you covered.

What Is LTL Dispatch Software? 

Less-Than-Load or Less-Than-Truckload shipping is a practice key to the operations of many freight companies and LTL dispatch software is a tool used to help streamline those operations.  This software is specifically designed to manage Less-than-Truckload shipments - which is when you need to transport goods that don't fill an entire truck - meaning they share space with other cargo on the same trailer.

With multiple cargo shipments bound for multiple destinations on the same truck, this can throw a wrench into operations that leads to lost or delayed shipments. LTL dispatch software tackles the complexities of optimizing routes, scheduling pick-ups and deliveries, and ensuring all shipments arrive on time and within budget. This translates to improved efficiency, reduced costs, and improved customer service for your trucking business. TransPlus TMS Software provides the tools - including LTL dispatch functionality - that freight companies need to better manage LTL shipping.

What Is FTL Dispatch Software?

Alongside Less-Than-Load dispatch software, Full-Truckload (FTL) dispatch software plays a crucial role in managing your trucking fleet and your logistics operations. Full-Truckload shipping involves transporting goods that fill an entire trailer, dedicated solely to that specific shipment and destination. This method is ideal for large volumes of cargo. TransPlus TMS Software provides freight and trucking companies with robust FTL dispatch and logistics features to match your trucks with the most profitable loads, optimize routes for faster delivery times, and  ensure clear communication with drivers. By streamlining FTL operations, TransPlus empowers you to maximize revenue per trailer and deliver a reliable service to your customers.
